Bikes are popular in the Dutch(荷蘭). In fact, nearly half of all travel in the Dutch is by bike. Now, one Dutch bike designer(設(shè)計師), Thomas, has taken the country’s interest in bikes by making a school bus bike.
The big bike has eight sets of pedals(踏板) for kids, a driver seat for an adult, and three other seats, comfortably letting little kids for their trip to and from school. The bike even has a motor, which can help with high hills or at times when few kids on it.
So far, Thomas tells Fast Company, he’s sold 25 school-bikes, at a price of $ 25,000 each—less than it would cost to buy a traditional school bus with the same number of seats. Along with the traditional color, the bikes ,are colored yellow so that they can be seen easily.
Thomas says he’s sold school bus bikes to neighboring countries such as Belgium, England and Germany, but so far, the school bus bike hasn’t been sold in the United States. If the U.S. agrees to buy this kind of school bus bike, it could do a lot of good to improve exercise for a young age and help them keep healthy.

小題1:How do people in the Dutch usually go to work?
A．By car.B．By bus.
C．By bike.D．On foot.
小題2:How many seats does the school bus bike have?

A sunflower is a sunflower. A mobile phone is a mobile phone. But can you combine the two to do something for your local environment? As early as next year it may well be possible. When you have finished with your mobile phone you will be able to bury (埋葬) it in the garden and wait for it to flower（開花）. A biodegradable (生物可降解的) mobile phone was, this month, introduced by scientists. It is hoped that the new type of phone will encourage users to recycle. Scientists have come up with a new material over the last five years. It looks like any other plastic and can be hard or soft, and able to change shape. Overtime it can also break down into the soil without giving out any poisonous（有毒的）chemicals. British researchers used the new material to develop a phone cover that includes a sunflower seed .When this new type of cover turns into waste, it forms nitrates (硝酸鹽). These feed the seed and help the flower grow. Engineers have designed a small transparent (透明的) window to hold the seed. They have made sure it only grows when the phone is thrown away. “We’ve only put sunflower seeds into the cover so far. But we are working with scientists to find out which flowers would perform best. Maybe we could put roses in next time.” said one scientist.
As phone technology is developing so quickly, people are constantly（不斷）throwing their mobiles away. This means producers are under pressure to find ways of recycling them. Some 650 million mobile phones have been sold this year. Most of them will be thrown away within two years, adding plastic, heavy metal and chemical waste to the environment. A biodegradable cover can change this, according to the scientists.
根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從題中所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中，選擇最佳答案。（10分）
小題1: After you have finished using the new type of mobile phone, _______.
A．the phone will do harm to the environment
B．the phone cover will break down easily in the soil you bury it
C．it will be recycled by the producers
D．it can be sent back to the shops.
小題2: Which of the following is wrong about the cover of the new type of phone?
A．It can help the sunflower seed after the mobile phone breaks down.
B．It looks like normal plastics but it can break down.
C．It includes a sunflower seed.
D．It makes sure the seed only grows after the phone is thrown away.
小題3:The new type of phone can reduce the harm to the environment mainly ______.
A．because of the material of its cover
B．because of the sunflower seed
C．because it’s made of no poisonous chemicals
D．because you bury it in the soil after you finish with it
小題4: This type of research is done because ________.
A．the technology that produces mobile phones is changing quickly
B．users are constantly throwing their mobiles away
C．nobody has ever thought of recycling mobile phones
D．producing mobile phones uses a lot of energy, so this has become a very big problem for the environment
小題5:We can guess from the story ________.
A．the new type of mobile phones is already on the market
B．the new type of mobile phones will sell very well
C．recycling mobile phones is not useful to the environment
D．other flowers may be used in the new type of mobile phones

If you are one of those who want to know how to increase your vocabulary, there are some ways you may find useful. In fact, it is not that difficult to learn new words, but to remember them for a lifetime seems not to be so easy.
To make it easier, you can try word associations（聯(lián)想）. Try to find a connection between a new word and things or people you know. For example, if your neighbour is an unselfish person who cares about the needs of other people, think about this person every time you see the word, and very soon you'll start actively using it.
Try to use the words you learn as often as possible. Perhaps you are not sure which situations they should be used in, or whether you pronounce（發(fā)音） them correctly, but practice is the best way to understand that. It is not enough to find out the meaning of a word. You should hammer (敲打) it into your mind by using it in actual conversations in everyday life.
Also, it may be helpful to know the meaning of the word roots, prefixes (前綴) and suffixes （后綴）， especially if they have a Greek or Latin origin（起源）． Even if you meet a long unfamiliar word, it will be easy to know its meaning if you know the general meaning of its parts.  For example, if you see the word "philanthropy", it won't be difficult to surmise what it means if you know that "anthropo" means "human" and "philo" means "loving". Not only can ancient Greek and Latin be helpful, but a number of modern languages as well. So, if you speak French,  Italian, Spanish or Portuguese, guess the meaning of an unfamiliar English word if it sounds like  a word from another language you know.
小題1: Which of the following old sayings can show the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A．Every dog has his day.
B．Practice makes perfect.
C．Every coin has two sides.
D．Where there is a will there is a way.
小題2: According to the last paragraph, what does the writer think is important?
A．Learning to use several different modern languages.
B．Learning some very difficult words in the English language.
C．Knowing the meaning of the word roots, prefixes and suffixes.
D．paying more attention to words that have a Greek or Latin origin.
小題3:The underlined word "surmise" in the last paragraph means_______.
A．guessB．suggest
C．proveD．remember
小題4: what's the writer's purpose in writing the passage?
A．To tell us how he or she learnt English well.
B．To explain why it is not hard to learn new words.
C．To prove that learning new words can be really fun.
D．To tell us some good ways of remembering new words.

 Scientists have made the world’s first human-sheep----with the body of a sheep and half-human organs(器官). Amazing, but true. The sheep is15percent human and 85 percent sheep. The breakthrough(突破)makes it possible to use animal organs in human bodies in the future. Professor Esmail Zanjani of University of Nevada, US, has spent seven years And over $9 million on the work. Zanjani took stem cells(干細(xì)跑) from the human body and put them into the sheep while it was still in its mother’s body. The stem cells made other cells that grew into organs. Zanjani believe that in the future such sheep might be used to help humans. Two months later a human-sheep is born, it has a liver(肝臟), heart, ling(肺) and brain that are part-human. These organs could be used to help people in need of them. There are different opinions about his work, however. Some say that scientists don’t have the right to create new creature(生物).

It is two months since MH730 first went missing in the early hours of March 8th, while flying from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing. Malaysia Airlines said it was terribly sorry that MH370 ended in the southern Indian Ocean. People are losing hope that the passengers on the      could return alive and realize they should know how to save themselves when accidents like this happen in the air.
  1985, an Australia professor, Ed Galea, has interviewed 2,000 survivors of 105 airplane accidents, searching for the keys to survival (n.幸存) and found out      golden rules after years of research.
First, make sure that the airline does not keep your family members too far away on the plane, if you are traveling in family group.     ? It’s natural that while feeling in danger, you’ll probably want to meet the family before you can calmly move out.
Second, how do you untie (解開) your seat belt on a plane? By lifting a latch.            you can’t untie your seat belt, you can hardly run away and your chances of survival will drop.
Third, the           to the exits (逃生口), the more likely you are to survive. Count exactly how many rows you are from the nearest two exits. Why two exits? Because this helps you find at least               even in the sudden dark during an accident.
Fourth, we would be safer if airline seats faced backward, according to Galea’s research. But the problem is that most of the passengers              traveling with their back facing the direction of travel.
Fifth, “Smoke is dangerous to your health. If you take in too much of it, your will die,” explains Galea. You must learn how to use a smoke mask. Without the knowledge of putting on a mask, you’ll              time trying to put it on—time that could be used to run away.
At last, listen to the flight attendants before flying and look      at everything shown on a video or a safety card. Always be prepared. Good luck to you.

There is a famous English saying "You are what you eat", and it means what you put in your mouth will become part of you. Many experts（專家） use it to tell people it's important to have a good eating habit. For example, too much sweet food makes a person overweight. To avoid being fat, kids are told to keep off sweet food. However, a team of American scientists have discovered something new about eating sweet food.
"When we say some people 'sweet', we mean they are kind and friendly to us. Perhaps this word can help us learn more about people's feelings and acts." said Brian Meier, a scientist from the study team. "Taste is something we experience every day. What we have done is to find whether we can know someone's character and behavior depending on their taste."
In one of their experiments, college students were asked questions about their character- whether, for example, they were soft-hearted or not. Then they were asked to make a list of their favorite food. According to their answers, the scientists found that the students who liked sweet food were nicer.
In their another experiment, the scientists found that people who preferred sweet food such as cookies and chocolate were more willing to help other people in need, and those who ate non-sweet food such as chips weren't. For example, people with a sweet tooth were more likely to volunteer to clean up their city, visit sick children in the hospital and so on.
The result of the experiments is that people's helpfulness or being nice has something to do with their taste for sweet food. So eating sweet food is a useful way to make people nice and helpful. Next time, try some ice-cream.
小題1:The underlined word "it" in the sentence "Many experts use it to tell people it's important to have a good eating habit." refers to______.
A．the sweet foodB．the English saying
C．the American teamD．the eating habit
小題2:According to the result of the experiments, sweet food makes people______.
A．overweightB．excitedC．relaxedD．friendly
小題3:The scientists found that the people who preferred______ were less helpful.
A．chipsB．chocolateC．ice-creamD．cookies
小題4:It can be learnt from the passage that______.
A．scientists asked college students questions about their future
B．scientists told college students not to eat sweet food
C．people with a sweet tooth are more willing to help others
D．people's character has nothing to do with their taste
